Places visited
Brian, Bea, Noah and I met for apple picking at Masker's Orchards in Warwick, New York. We enjoyed the afternoon apple picking and looking at the beautiful fall views. We then went to Olive Garden in Middletown, New York for a delicious lunch. In the afternoon and evening, we played card game and ate apple pie that I made and brought. We stayed at the Hampton Inn in Middletown. It was a great weekend!
One afternoon I visited Taran's classroom as the mystery reader. It was a lot of fun! Ater reading, Taran and I went to the Via Aquarium in Via Port Rotterdam mall in Schenectady, New York where we had a great time looking at all the sea creatures and feeding some of them. Then, we met Jon at Robb's Topp Doggs in the mall for dinner. It was a wonderful day!
On one nice autumn day I took a walk around Mile-Around Woods in North Bennington, Vermont.
